The boy was frozen there, and he didn't react anyway.

It would definitely not be able to take out five taels of silver to bargain with the person in front of you, that would be too embarrassing! But if you can't take out it, it would be even more embarrassing!

He still has a 100 tael of silver notes in his arms. This was issued by the money shop in Jiang/Su, but people in the capital only recognize the benefits of the business, and he will lose all his face when he takes it out!

The boy's eyes flashed for a while, his left hand was still in his arms, his head was stretched towards Zhu Xu, and he lowered his voice and said, "Brother, you go first, go downstairs and ask the shopkeeper to give you thirty taels! Just say that I said it!"

Zhu Xu couldn't help but feel funny. This person was really interesting. After thinking about it, he was about to give him face. The waiter quickly walked up with a plate and said in a long voice: "Customer, your food is here!"

As he said that, the waiter ignored everything else and quickly put the plate on the table. He looked at the boy who was bullying half of his body on the table, and then turned around and left.

Zhu Xu looked at the wine and food on the table and suddenly became hungry, but she still wanted to tease the boy. She smiled and said, "These dishes cost two taels of silver, you have to give me thirty-five taels."

"Puchi!"

The girl in pink in the pink not far away smiled with her little mouth covering her mouth.

The girl in green also held back her laughter and looked at Zhu Xu curiously. In the blink of an eye, she reached thirty-five taels. Either he could do business or he did it on purpose.

The boy was also completely angered by Zhu Xu's words "Twenty-five taels". He suddenly slapped out a hundred taels of silver in his arms, lowered his voice and roared: "I'll give you one hundred taels, get out of here immediately!"

Cao Huachun and Cao Bianjiao's faces were slightly darker behind Zhu Xu. Daming, who can let the emperor get out!

Zhu Xu's eyes were a little cold, and he slowly took out a silver note from his arms, slapped it on the table, and said, "This is one thousand taels. I bought your store and you can get out."

The young man immediately sneered and said, "Brother, how many years have you lived? The Ministry of Revenue stipulates that the largest silver notes in the entire Ming Dynasty's money house can only be one hundred taels. You are cheating fools for only one thousand taels..."

The two girls not far away also looked at Zhu Xu with wide eyes. Their faces were puzzled. Zhu Xu was full of nobleness and with his servants, he didn't look like a liar no matter how he looked.

Zhu Xu pushed the silver bills over, smiled faintly, and said, "When Huitong Trading Bank conducts large-scale transactions, it is allowed to issue 1,000 taels of silver bills, but it is very small. Only big businessmen can have them. If you don't know them and find someone you know, your restaurant will be worth up to 500 taels. Please let someone withdraw cash, I won't collect the silver bills."

The boy was stunned when he heard Zhu Xu's words, picked up the silver note and looked down. He used gold stamping, markings, and virtual images. The boy could use all the methods that could be verified, and he could not find any fake flaws.

"Is it true?" the young man said in a low voice. Anyone who can take out a thousand taels is not something he can crush at will.

Zhu Xu nodded.

The boy was disappointed. Thinking of the charming second lady behind him, his eyes flashed and he gritted his teeth and said, "Brother, my elder brother is Master Fu. Can you give me some face today?"

Zhu Xu was stunned. Only Fu Tao can be called "Master Fu" in the capital. He knew Fu Tao's family background best, except for his cousin, but he never had any other younger brothers.

At this moment, the intern supervisor who had gone out came back and whispered a few words in Cao Huachun's ear.

Cao Huachun waved his hand, then walked to Zhu Xu, and whispered in his ear, "It's the one in Fu's family in Ying/Tianfu, who is running errands for the eldest son."

Zhu Xu suddenly realized that it would take several generations to trace the relationship between the Qing Dynasty.

He looked at the young man in front of him, which was his far away cousin, and smiled and said, "Then you call Mr. Fu, as long as he comes, this thousand taels will be yours."

The boy also realized that he was not able to settle the person in front of him. It was too shameless to go back so shamelessly. He was struggling on his face and was still thinking of a way.

Zhu Xu didn't give him a chance to struggle and said, "If you don't call me, I'll call me."

The boy was worried, and he became excited when he heard it, and shouted: "You call, if you can call me, I will give you all the fifty taels!"

As soon as the boy finished speaking, footsteps sounded on the stairs. Fu Tao was wearing a white shirt and looked around and walked towards Zhu Xu's table.

The boy stared at the boss with his eyes wide open, stood up and looked at Fu Tao, and then looked at Zhu Xu. It was not until Fu Tao approached that he said, "Brother..."

Fu Tao was also wondering why Fu Zhengzhi and Zhu Xu were together. He conscientiously raised his hand and said to Zhu Xu: "Little Prince."

This is a title that had been agreed upon before. Zhu Xu waved and smiled and said, "Young Master Fu, let's sit together."

Fu Tao listened to the obvious teasing in Zhu Xu's words, smiled awkwardly, and sat down on Zhu Xu's left.

The young Fu Zhengzhi left and was neither standing nor standing. Even his elder brother Fu Tao had to respect the "little prince" that he must not offend.

Fu Tao knew that Zhu Xu asked him to discuss the matter, so he waved his hand to Fu Zhengzhi and said, "Go, stop using my banner to cause trouble."

Fu Zhengzhiru received a general amnesty, first raised his hand to Fu Tao and then accompanied Zhu Xu with a big smile. Then he turned around and walked downstairs quickly. He no longer cared about the second lady.

The two girls not far away were also quite surprised by Zhu Xu's sudden identity. Fortunately, there were so many princes in the capital, and the little princes were walking everywhere, and there was nothing strange about it. Seeing that Fu Zhengzhi stopped entangling, the two followed him downstairs.

Zhu Xu picked up the chopsticks and said, "Let's talk while eating."

Fu Tao also held the chopsticks, but did not move, and said, "Your Majesty, there are always 32 money houses in the country now. Our Huitong Trading Bank is the largest. Basically, each has shares and can completely control the whereabouts of the money. Moreover, if the court needs silver, give me some time, 10 or 20 million, and you can raise all of them within one month."

Zhu Xu ate the sauce duck and did not answer Fu Tao's words.

Seeing that Zhu Xu didn't say anything, Fu Tao slowly said: "Your Majesty, the silver notes issued by Huitong Trading now range from five cents, ten cents, fifty cents, five cents, one liang, ten liang, and the largest one is one hundred liang."

Zhu Xu had read the report a long time ago, took a sip of the soup, and nodded.

Fu Tao continued: "I have estimated that the profits of major commercial banks will exceed 30 million taels of silver this year, but purchasing grain and land will cost more than 10 million taels."

Zhu Xu licked his lips and kept silent.

With his reforms advancing, the business of the Ming Dynasty was further liberated, the large groups of officials and businessmen in Jiangnan were weakened, and countless merchants of all sizes rose. Simply put, the middle class of the Ming Dynasty was expanding. The number of middle class also determines the degree of business development of a country.

Zhu Xu's huge business group monopolizes violent industries such as salt, tea, and business banks, as well as various gadgets from Chengdong workshops. In addition, the increasingly vigorous sea trade has made a profit of 30 million yuan. In general, it is still less.

Seeing that Zhu Xu still didn't say anything, Fu Tao had to continue, "Emperor, Hai Trade, now he has encountered a lot of trouble. The red-haired people invaded, plundered our merchant ships, and arrested people and seized ships. Some networks of relationships that were finally established in Luzon and other places will be broken soon. The red-haired people don't want us to gain a foothold in Nanyang."

Merchant ships going to sea in the Ming Dynasty were often loaded with porcelain, silk, tea, etc. When they came back, they were all gold, spices, etc., and every time they were robbed, they were heavy losses.

Fu Tao said one after another that after years of development, Huitong Trading Company has basically matured, but it still often encounters difficulties. It is faced with the obstacles of conservative forces and local protectionism. It is serious xenophobia. For Jiangnan, many places do not like Huitong Trading Company, even if they know it is the emperor's property.

These are no longer something that the Ministry of Revenue or any department can solve. Zhu Xu still needs to promote it from the overall situation, either moistening things silently or forcing violent changes to make a way out.

After Fu Tao finished speaking, Zhu Xu had almost finished eating. Then he tapped the table and said carefully: "Grain price. When sweet potatoes are dug out in September, I will ask local governments to suppress the price of grain. The merchants are still responsible for collecting major grain merchants. It must be fast, accurate and ruthless. It is good to collect one more grain of grain."

"In the matter of sea trade, I will order the navy to conduct ocean training, and I will also rob the red-haired merchant ships to show revenge. In the nearshore, our Ming Dynasty navy is invincible!"

"I am considering the possibility of businessmen providing disaster relief in various disaster areas to reduce taxes. My elder brother will also think about whether it is feasible when he is free."

"In recent days, you have summoned merchants from all over the country to come to the capital to hold a meeting to discuss a businessman's guidelines. After discussion, brother, you will submit it to King Jing in person and report it to the Silijian after the discussion."

Fu Tao took out a small notebook and wrote down Zhu Xu's words without saying a word.

After all, Zhu Xu didn't do it himself, and he was talking in general. Fu Tao also gave some opinions from time to time, discussing while talking.

"emperor!"

Feng Zhu hurriedly ran up from the downstairs, without caring about anything else, and said directly: "Your Majesty is not good. There are bandits in Shaanxi and Xi who have occupied most of the Ping/Liang Mansion. Now Feng/Yang Mansion is no longer safe!"

Zhu Xu's face changed slightly when he heard this. Feng Yang Mansion was very small, close to Xi'an. If Xi'an fell, the entire Shaanxi/Xi will be in chaos.

"Hong Chengchou, what is Yang He doing?" Zhu Xu said with a calm face. Hong Chengchou is the general of Shaanxi, and Yang He is the governor of Shaanxi.

Feng Zhu hurriedly said: "Go back to the emperor, it is said that General Hong has entered Xi'an and is heading towards Fengyang Prefecture. Governor Yang is also urging the troops of various prefectures and counties to gather. However, I heard that the bandits are coming in full force this time, with 200,000 people!"

Zhu Xu tapped his fingers on the table, and his face was unpredictable.

There must be a lot of water for 200,000. With Hong Chengchou here, Zhu Xu was not worried. What's more, the soldiers from Sichuan, Guizhou, Rivers, South, Mountains and West can enter Shaanxi at any time. The most important thing now is how to provide disaster relief and reduce disaster victims. Otherwise, some people would call for a high place, and followers would gather, and the officials and soldiers of the court were busy running, and the consumption was also very large.

Such internal friction must be curbed as soon as possible!
